National Planning Policy Framework [electronic resource]
- London DCLG 2012
Government's National Plannling Policy Framework (NPPF) is now in force and English planning authorities have 12 months to ensure their strategies conform to it. The NPPF makes it clear that the local plan is the keystone of the planning regime and that sustainable development embraces social and environmental as well as economic objectives and does so in a balanced way. The new wording has been amended significantly from the 2011 draft with the government accepting in whole or in part 30 out of 35 recommendation to amend the draft NPPF proposed by Commons select committees.
